[right wing]

I'll repeat this one last time, since you continue to dismiss the point of what this busy-body substitute teacher did by ranting about school boards, the first amendment, prayer in school, etc. No need to be all over the map on this one. It really is very simple.

Please pay attention to this part because you seem to avoid facing this important point: This controversy has nothing to do with YOU, or YOUR rights to INTERFERE in what other parents, many of whom are Christians, teach their children about Santa.

If you indeed advocate spoiling others family Christmas traditions because YOU are hell bent and determined that it is your right to do so, then I suggest you do more reading in your guilded Bible (and please spare me the pagan speech).

YOU are in charge of your children and what you teach them, but you have no right to usurp my parental authority and undermine my family traditions because you think your way of raising your kids is superior to mine. And I have no right to do the same with your kids. It's called respect and common decency.

I think we're done with this conversation because frankly, I'm sure it will only continue to go nowhere. Goodbye.

#1. It is a PUBLIC school... I pay taxes, I vote (always Republican or not at all)...

#2. Christians are supposed to follow what is in the Bible, and I don't see a Santa clause (sic) anywhere in it...

I may not be a religious person or a Christian, but I will not defend or champion the heresy of others.

My gilded Bible is a fine work of art as far as I am concerned. If you herald Christmas as a Christian celebration of Yeshua, it is you that needs to better read it, as I have demonstrated.
